Chapter 1
There are two deities that the Dihnya people believe in: the feminine deity of the living, Cahzlik, and the masculine deity of the departed, Ohrlu. It’s been said that Cahzlik gave birth to the first Dihns—two males and two females—a day after she and Ohrlu copulated. Once. Just one time. But most Dihns say the carnal act was a mistake. A great mistake…
“What’s this, Mahk?” I grimaced. It smelled like rotten fruits and meat.
“I told you, it’s medicine. Don’t ask, just drink it.” She turned to Sekkiz. “Get some saccharine nectar, Sekkiz dearie.”
Sekkiz left without any protest. I supposed she would go to the nearest sweet tree to get some nectar to down my medicine. The sweet tree was only seven feet tall with four branches that faced the four directions, with red-orange leaves and fruits. The golden orange fruits were like a bag of sweet nectar. One must be careful in picking it from the branches or the nectar would burst and be wasted.
“You sure it’s not some kind of poison, Mahk?” I queried with a frown.
